Thats the point, mutually beneficial international cooperation for technological advancement. There still has to be a reason, and that reasoning will always be money or resources. There's also far more out there than simply Ice. Hydrocarbons, rare minerals, isotopes, and so forth. LEO asteroids present a great…

The U.S. and most space capable countries need a reason to go to space. Today, this reasoning is money, or materials of significant value. Our reasoning in the 60's and 70's was not one of exploration and exploitation. The reason advanced societies explore and conquer is and always has been to find something of value…
Exactly
I understand the economics of it all, I'm all for the precious metals market falling out of its current state. I'd love to have gold wiring in my walls, its way more efficient than copper! It'd be nice to have carbide parts in my vehicles and on my tools. I agree with you 100% But, there will be a company that does…
Sad :( The point of NASA not pursuing lunar landings anymore is more of shuffling of funds, than it is a lack of ability. Going to the moon is expensive... for what exactly? We need to pour money into research and development, especially if if means lassoing or harpooning an asteroid of certain qualities. Browse…
Sounds better... "I killed 150 men in WWII" or "I killed 27,450 pounds of men"
From NFM, Nebraska Furniture Mart. In store in KC or Omaha, they had it bundled for 280$. Best part, NFM offers full, no questions asked, bring us the parts warranty for 1 year: $60. I could "accidentally" break it in 10 months, and they hand me a gift card for the original value!
NFM.. nebraska furniture mart... online prices suck, instore in KC or Omaha. Best part: 1 year no questions asked full warranty for 60$ I could scratch it, bring it in, and walk out with a new one. Happy times!
Love my Transformer... got mine + the keyboard dock for $280. Gave my ipad to my mom, which is where it always belonged.
I can "read" it now that I know Seamless is differentiated from its modifier, maybe the all caps threw me off, or maybe my classical grammar knowledge needs updating!
Makes me happy. I like reading bits like this, makes me wish I lived on an island in the caribbean, or any island, or beachy coast, or any coast, or at least somewhere warm... damnit, sad again.
Google isn't showing bias towards Israel... now motorola on the other hand...
Never, the price of gold is based on the assumption of it's perceived limited quantity and cost to extract per ton of rock. Bring lots of gold in, and the price goes down.
confusing title... maybe comma after enabler?
"Hopefully the new patent law signed by the president will put an end too, or at least slow down these sort of articles."
Spatial Reasoning... Computers aren't able to quickly problem solve these 3 dimensional puzzles. In this instance, the puzzle is a peptide "key", where each piece has a chemical value. Nature creates the simplest "keys" with the lowest value based components of the key and their shape. Computers were unable to create…
Shotgun Willie's?... judging from the shotgun in the picture of their sign... Willie is looking a little limp...
Thank you! You not only explained it, but made it useful in some applications. Would still freak me out, posting my location and such all the time.
